17. Then I will give her the vineyards she had,and the valley of Achor as a door of hope.There she will respond as in the days of her youth,as on the day when she came up from the land of Egypt.
18. On that day—oracle of the Lord—You shall call me “My husband,”and you shall never again call me “My baal.”
19. I will remove from her mouth the names of the Baals;they shall no longer be mentioned by their name.
20. I will make a covenant for them on that day,with the wild animals,With the birds of the air,and with the things that crawl on the ground.Bow and sword and warfareI will destroy from the land,and I will give them rest in safety.
21. I will betroth you to me forever:I will betroth you to me with justice and with judgment,with loyalty and with compassion;
22. I will betroth you to me with fidelity,and you shall know the Lord.
23. On that day I will respond—oracle of the Lord—I will respond to the heavens,and they will respond to the earth;
24. The earth will respond to the grain, and wine, and oil,and these will respond to Jezreel.
25. I will sow her for myself in the land,and I will have pity on Not-Pitied.I will say to Not-My-People, “You are my people,”and he will say, “My God!”
